    Need help picking a photo for a photo contest

    I'm entering a senior horse photo contest my local feed store is having, but I'm having issues picking a photo.  Basically the only rules I currently know of is that it has to be of high resolution and it must be a senior horse that I own.  I just can't decide which one I want to enter.  I believe they will be using the picture for a pamplet they are making about their senior horse feeds.

    Anyway below are links to some pictures of my horses (both of which are senior) but I can't decide which one I should enter...

    I'm also hoping to get some more pictures, but I'm just not sure what type of shots I should try getting.

     He's a sweetie.  Basically, what they want to see is a clear, well-lit photo that shows of the horse. The photos with two horses in, while nice photos, are a bit confusing as to which horse is the one you're referring to.

     You can probably include a nice close up portrait of the head, and a side-on shot.  I love 1429-1 - the colors are lovely and it shows his conformation and how much energy he has, but it's very small.  If you have a large version you could crop in so he takes up more of the photo, it would be lovely.

    All of these pictures are very lovely.

    The pictures I like the best are:

    1429-1
    I like 1420, but I would crop out your horse galloping on the left, because you do not want to have more than one horse in the picture
    I like the last picture, Solo's face down low, too!

    Those are the pics that are the best for the photo contest! Good luck! Your horses are cute! :)

    Looking back at all of the pictures, my favorite is 1420, but you would have to crop out your horse on the left. The background scenery is beautiful, and there is a little bit of fog, which looks mysterious, and the horse on the right has a nice long stride and a beautiful color.

    Both horses are adorable, but I like the right side of that pic better. :)
